Murillo targeted by Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea
Nottingham Forest has indicated that Brazilian centre-back Murillo is not available for transfer in the upcoming January window. Despite this stance, several Premier League clubs are monitoring the 24-year-old defender.
Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea are reportedly interested in the player. Manchester United is considering Murillo as part of a defensive reinforcement strategy, particularly as current options face contract uncertainty. Liverpool is viewing him as a potential successor to Virgil van Dijk, while Chelsea is looking to address defensive needs.
Nottingham Forest has placed a valuation on Murillo in the region of £70m to £80m. The defender is currently under contract with Forest until 2030, and the club is reportedly under no financial pressure to facilitate a sale.
